Sponges are of any qualitles, but the most highly prized is that of Syria, _with a cuplike shape and a yellowish pale color, which 1s found in a nimber of varletfes. ~ The large sponge flsherles are sit- uated along the seashores of Greece, "Syria and of certain parts of the Adri- _atic, as well as along the Tripoll and “Tunisian seashores. The fishing of sponges Is effected by divers who are |’ fet down from a boat to depths of 10, 20 and sometimes 25 meters, and pull the sponges from the rocks to which ‘they are fixed. Some sponge fishermen use a long trident, but tkis system Is fortunately falling Into disuse, since it #poils the sponges. In better-equipped fishing grounds the gathering of ‘sponges s effected by divers provided with diving bells or dressed In eork Jackets. Upon being gathered the sponges are squeezed, beaten and washed in order to rid them of their black coating and soft substance which gives them a very characteristic chlorine odor. ‘When they begin to wkiten they are gubjected to a frequently renewed solution of sulphuric acid. Woman's Heartlessness. «I hear tell that Gabe Gawkey 19 figgering on getting a divorce from his wife” said a veighbor. “What's mtter with her, amhnw 7 #he's plumb heartless!” replied _&ap Johnson of Rumpus Ridge. “He, talked about some spring medicine and she up and told him that the best kind to suit his case was a buck- saw and an axe. That there infernal fady ain’t got no more feelings than a snapping turtle!”—Kansas City Star. Better Not Change Left-Handers. . If a child be naturally left handed, 1t _should be allowed to remain so, for an attempt to train it to right-hand- edness may easlly result in making it mentally inferior. Dr. H. Griesbach emphasizes this in an article in the Deutsche Medizinische Wochenschrift (Berlin), explaining that in left-hand- ed persons the speech center is in the right hemisphere of the brain instead of In the left hemisphere, as is the case In right-handed persons. The result of persistent efforts to make them right-handed may be a speech center that is not predomi- nantly situated on either side, which condition Griesbach says interferes with the differentiation of the hemi- spheres throughout childhood and adolescence. He says that once the unilateral hemishperc differentiation 18 com- plete. as it is in adults, a re-education from left to right or from right to left-handedness will do no harm to the brain. Honor to Whom It Is Due. The army mule has been cited offi- cially for helping to win the war.

At the time of the receipt of the news of this astonishing windfall he was actu- ally on his way to apply for parish re- lief for himself and his family. Dakota supreme court, opening today. ABOVE ALL PRIGE There Are Things Which Money Cannot Purchase. Man Who Made That Assertion Proved His Case, Though Many Have Long Held a Contrary Opinion, Says an Exchange. A group of men were discussing, over the luncheon table, the purchas- ing power of money. One of them, especially, waxed eloquent upon the subject. “There is nothing money will not buy,” he said positively. One man took exception to this statement. - “Money will not buy health,” he as- serted. “Wrong " sald the first. “There i8 -many & poor man or woman who, it they had money to pay for proper treatment, would quickly regain thelr health, In many instances, money will buy health.” “Happiness, then—" “Wrong again. In rare instances money will not buy happiness, but in the majority of cases, yes. The pos- session of money means time for rest recreation, study, travel—many things, all of which give happiness. I'll tell you,” leaning across the table earnestly, “write down, if you can find them, four things that money will not really buy, and for each one I will give you a thousand dollars.” The next day, at luncheon, the one who was challenged handed the other a slip of paper. After reading it, the man without a quibble handed his friend four $1,000 bills. This is what was written on the paper: 1. A Baby's Smile—A baby's smile can never be purchased by offering it money. To the soul that has so lately come from the place of the unborn, the means of exchange of this world offers no appeal. A mother's kiss, a father's caress, a flower, a bright-col- ored toy, may win a baby's smile, but you cannot bargain for that smile with gold. 2, Youth, When It Has Gone—"“The mill will never grind with the water that has passed.” The flush-of youth, the Iudster of the eyes of a boy in his teens, the carefree happiness of the maiden, when the years have brought maturity, can never come again. Ponce de Leon in his quest for the spring of eternal youth realized that fact. He knew that youth, once gone, could never be bought agaln. Money will not purchase its return, even if heaped in piles of millions, and the spring for which the knight so diligently searched to insure against the ravages of time was never discovered. 8. The Love of a Good Woman— Love, like a baby’s smile, cannot be bought with gold. Many & woman has simulated love for a dowry with a husband thrown in, and practiced the deception successfully for years, but true love, of the kind which lasts eternally, cannot be purchased. The love of a pure woman 18 held by her as the most sacred gift which she can bestow. It is not to be bought with gold, or silver, or precious stenes. It is gtven freely to the man she loves. 4. Entrance Into Heaven—There is an old saying that “shrouds have no pockets.” Money, which will purchase nearly everything in this world, can- not be taken to the next and used as a means of entrance into heaven. The keeper of the portals of the heavenly city 1s not susceptible to a bribe. There, at least, money has no value.— Frank Dorrance Hopley in Dearborn Independent. Breaking It Gently. A fondness for backing an occasional winner was one of Bill's weaknesses; that his selection didn’t always come home first couldn't be blamed on him. After a certaln race, he got home rather later than usual, to be met at the door by his wife, her face distort- ed.with rage. He knew the signs, and sank Into a chair, content to wait till the clouds had rolled by. When at last she had to pause for want of breath, he remarked causually: “I say, Nell, ye likes to 'ear ‘o ple winnin’ lots o’ money, don't yér?’ Visions of new hats and even a dress flouted before her dazzled eyes, so the woman forced a smile to her lips and replied: “That 1 do. Tell me all ubu‘t it.” to him, “a bookmaker’s been an' gorn an’ won all me wages this week."— Answers, London. Movies Everywhere Triumphant. Mexico, we read in current dis- patches, has decided to lift the heavy censorship from the movies and to fos- ter the enterprise In every way. There seems to be no stopping the trium- phant march of the movie stars, says the Philadelphia Record. Not long ago we read that Devonshire house, the famous rendezvous of the whigs in London, had fallen before the cinema. The Alhambra and the Em- pire, famous music halls, are to go, too. —-England and the continent ap- pear to be as wild for the screen as we are here. All doors are opening to it. Not long ago the conservative Vatican sanctioned the picturing of an important religious function. Great are the movies!
